Wait-free programming for general purpose computations on graphics processors
2008
Proceedings of the twenty-seventh ACM symposium on Principles of distributed computing - PODC '08
The fact that graphics processors (GPUs) are today's most powerful computational hardware for the dollar has motivated researchers to utilize the ubiquitous and powerful GPUs for general-purpose computing. However, unlike CPUs, GPUs are optimized for processing 3D graphics (e.g. graphics rendering), a kind of data-parallel applications, and consequently, several GPUs do not support strong synchronization primitives to coordinate their cores. This prevents the GPUs from being deployed more
